Do humans have the right to nature? In this tender film, director Charlotte Sawyer tells a story of a community of wild swimmers in Bristol (UK) affected by raw sewage pollution of the river Avon. England is one of the only two countries in the world to have a fully privatised water and sewage disposal system, and with only 14% of English rivers in good ecological health, the mission to keep the rivers clean is not going well. In a series of moving, exciting and thought-provoking scenes, the swimmers create a stunning tapestry of light-hearted yet fascinating probe into how activism starts from the grassroots, and carries a profound universal lesson for all of us. There's a marriage to the river, drum'n'base, an inflatable turd, and a whole lot of cheesecake in this poignant reflection on innovative people's fight for the natural world they cherish.
